Radio and motor boat broke down, and all that remained to fishermen, is to try to survive and hope that they will find. They eat fish, sea turtles, in their own blood and rainwater. The body boys could not resist such a diet, and 4 months later he died. Jose boat drifted for a long time in the ocean, until he came to shore - ship issued to Marshall Islands.
